I meant to ask: if you add new properties to the files (type boolean, string, token ...), are they going to be handled by the new filesystem (LocalFS) ? Because LocalFS doesn't seem to allow for additional properties (except for id, title and content_type) to be created. Is there another filesystem which handles this ? Thank you.

Hi all, Can anybody tell me if there is a way of transferring a set of files(pdf, doc ...) from the ZODB to LocalFS or another filesystem easily ?

I don't know of any filesystem that allows you to set arbitrary properties the way ZODB can.

There are some interesting discussions relating to this taking place on the zope3-dev list right now... cheers, Chris
